Class Actress : Journal of Ardency
BY /

Hey, the 80′s called. They want their sound back, but Class Actress holds on tight to electro-pop right here in twenty-ten! Thank goodness for that! And also a special thanks to the collaboration gods who brought Elizabeth Harper and producers Scott Rosenthal and Mark Richardson together.

Tensnake : Coma Cat
BY /

Hamburg based producer/DJ Tensnake definitely has a very unique and fresh perspective on what would be interpreted as a sort of modern take on disco/80’s Boogie. His new EP entitled “Coma Cat”, released in early 2010 under Permanent Vacation Records, gives you some insight as to the minimalistic yet extraordinarily catchy style of Tensnake

El Michels Affair : C.R.E.A.M.
BY /

It’s almost Friday so I thought I’d bring a little R&B groovin’ to our weekend.  I happened upon this “cinematic soul” act by accident last week and cannot stop listening.  El Michels Affair is the creation of two former band mates  Leon Michels and Nick Movshon.  They along with eight other former members of the [...]

Crystal Castles : Baptism
BY /

I’m a big fan of the duo.  Musical duos are especially good.  Sam & Dave, Hall & Oates, Outkast, and Simon & Garfunkel are some of my favorite artists ever.  Something about the dynamic of 2 people’s skill sets complimenting each other just works for me.  And when two people get together and create something [...]

Pretty Lights : More Important Than Michael Jordan
BY /

Electronica saw a lot of expansion in the last half of the naughty ought’s. While greats like Tiesto and Oakenfold reined the heavens of yore while playing out Vegas residencies, the genres that brought you John Coltrane and Daft Punk spawned a generation of live electronica that marries the inspiration of ethereal synths with the draw of a good band. Don’t believe me? Get to know STS9 and EOTO. In the meantime, meet Pretty Lights.

Gorillaz : Some Kind of Nature (Featuring Lou Reed)
BY /

In my book the Gorillaz have never failed to deliver an album short of praise. Each album an anthem of its time, working in the sounds we subconsciously associated with the group : down-tempo rapping, high-pitched crooning, disco synths over loping reggae bass lines, yet always in a completely new way. Plastic Beach brings together [...]

Travellin’ Underground : Mos Dub (Max Tannone)
BY /

Max Tannone did it again.  The NYC producer and DJ who delivered us the irresistible Jay-Z/Radiohead mashup album, Jaydiohead, just dropped his latest gem.  Mos Dub, pits the lyrical stylings of Mos Def against the classic sounds of vintage reggae and its latter day cousin, dub.  Sure it’s a mashup album, but its organic feel [...]
